Tips & Advice

What is construction equipment rental protection plan?

Rental protection plan (RPP) is an optional insurance coverage plan you can purchase at the time of rental that provides additional protection against loss, damage, or theft of rental equipment. While most equipment might already be covered under the vendor’s insurance, the RPP provides additional protection. It’s similar to what rental car companies offer you when you rent a car, even though you may already be covered. Check the language of the contract to know exactly what you are responsible for, coverage wise.

What is the most commonly rented construction equipment?

When talking about heavy construction equipment, it is usually in reference to earth-moving equipment. In that regard, the top three heavy construction equipment rentals are:

Excavators that are used to move dirt, dig ditches, and move and place materials like prefab pipes.

Backhoe loaders, which are like next-level tractors that can scoop and move earth with a bucket arm, which can be swapped out for other attachments. The front has a shovel for leveling and moving earth. It is a smaller piece of equipment than an excavator, but very versatile.

Bulldozers, heavy duty machines with a flat blade in front used for pushing earth and grading out and leveling topsoil.

With these three pieces of equipment you can pretty much prepare and piece of land for the construction of any structure.

How much does it cost to rent construction equipment?

The cost to rent construction equipment is going to completely depend on what you are renting. Are you renting a jackhammer, a bulldozer, or a crane? For instance, you can rent an excavator for roughly $500 a day or $1,200 a week, while a forklift can run you $200 a day or $500 a week. The bigger the equipment, the more you are going to pay. Get quotes to confirm your costs.

What is the length of rental period for construction equipment?

Rental periods usually are set in hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly increments. Rental businesses make money on renting out their equipment, so unless there are future contractual obligations for a piece of equipment, they will rent it to you for as long as you need it. There are minimum time increments for rentals, particularly for heavy equipment. Every vendor sets their own terms, rates and restrictions, so be prepared for some variables from each one. Pick-up and delivery of equipment can also be a time and cost factor.

Do construction equipment rental companies provide delivery?

Yes, many construction equipment rental companies provide delivery of their equipment. Every vendor has their own delivery guidelines, but delivery means additional income. Most heavy construction equipment, like cranes and/or bulldozers, have to be delivered and the average renter doesn’t have the capabilities to transport it to the site. Some equipment can be driven to the site, but others require specialized trucks and trailers for delivery, and most people don’t have those handy.
